    Yeah.....I forgot that was on there. I know the story, but let me get all the facts straight from my father before he forgets them.

    This reminds me of an OCC episode....

    Paul Jr talking about his father: "my father has forgotten more than he knows, the problem is now he's trying to teach Jason everything he forgot".

    I thought it was because they all follow behind one another kind of like lemmings.... If the first one does it so will the rest.

    In the past I have occasionally heard people who are slow be referred to as a penguin, so I always assumed that the name came both from the point mentioned in the quote above, and the fact that its a school, everyone is learning so of course they are all slow.
